Woke up and did "Arms and Shoulders" followed by "Ab Ripper X." Definitely need heavier weights for Arms and Shoulders. Definitely need a healthier body for Ab Ripper X! I actually cried in the shower because I felt defeated by the minimal number of reps that I could do on the movements and that 1-2 of the movements, I couldn't do at all! Then I remembered Tony's intro to Ab Ripper X, that this is not the first or second version of this program, but that this has been honed to seriously challenge ANY athlete, him included. So, reframe, I have a long way to go, but others are walking the same path.
Food Log:
Breakfast: Chocolate protein shake with skim, strawberries and a banana
Snack: 1c chocolate milk and soy nuts
Lunch: salad greens with homemade chicken salad
Snack: 12 oz cottage cheese, 1%
Dinner: Planned for fish with dill sauce, zucchini, and rice however; only ate some of the rice and 75% of the fish...
Okay, last night was tough too. I had a nerve pinch in my left shoulder that was not letting up. I spent the evening nauseated, dizzy and pinning my head to my left shoulder (a slightly less uncomfortable position than any other). I went to bed at 8 with light meds, hoping it would remediate. Then woke at around midnight with more pain. I stepped up the meds and returned to bed. This morning, I am well rested (sort of), in less pain, and ready to go to Yoga X! Woo Hoo!
